Family / Re: As a Christian, Is This Not Enough Reason To Divorce Him? by Toks2008(m): 12:34pm On Sep 09, 2023
Prettycute90:
Since we got married, everything about the upkeep, rents, bills, feeding, general upkeep. I mean everything is on me and he has refused to provide for us as he always claimed he doesn't have. I have always be an understanding person who believe, I should be doing while I can, pending when things gets better for him.
I never knew he was getting little little, but was gambling away with it.

We really do not date for a long time before we got married. Because I knew him back then in school from a far distance. And we liked each other but didn't date. So, meeting again after graduation and in a different environment, made me believe I already knew and the fact that we already liked each other.

He was struggling with a little job when we got married. My foresight then was to grow with him. I supported him in all ways. Infact, during our wedding, most support came from friends and relatives.
Because I'm not the type of a wife that pressurized, It took me a very long time to know the nature of habit he had that has kept him low even before I married him.

He is a chronic gambler.
No money stays with him. He wouldn't even care about himself so long as he can afford little money to gamble.
Now, I don't have a job and too much burden has crippled my business.

To be honest, I'm losing myself. Sometimes I feel I need a therapy myself.
My husband has refused to change or make effort to make this marriage work.
Before I had my second child, he was pretending as if he has changed. But immediately I took in, he continues this lifestyle. I almost died due to emotional breakdown and responsibilities shouldered by myself.

I have done everything, (both family members have adviced him severally, I have prayed, fasted, cried, shouted, talked with a calm voice, all my efforts. but non is working.


Presently, since two weeks ago now, I don't cook for him. I source for food for just myself and my children. We barely have decent conversation in this house. I can't even remember the last time we had intimacy.
I always avoid him, each time he tries to get close. Because of the situation of things in this house.
We had two children and I don't intend having any other.
The cost of taking care of myself and the children all by myself is emotional hurting me so much.
School has resume and I can't even afford all the expenses of taking my first son to start a new school and I know, he would watch our son stay back at home. He wouldn't care.

We're in the house, but he's only concern is how to get little money to gambles.

Are these not enough reasons to divorce him?
During one qurrel we had recently, I told him I want us to separate for now, so we can work on ourselves, and he said he will be with our children not me.
I see that as way to make my children suffers.

What can you advise please?

I just want peace of mind.

I don't want to waste my youthful life in a loveless marriage. Where myself and my husband can not support each other to grow in Love. Rather, stressing me.





You are not alone in this boat... I have counseled many ladies going through exact same thing.

One now stays on her own after her husband couldn't pay rent and they had to lose their homes so she had to move back to her parents house before finding money to rent a small room for herself and her only son.

Unfortunately this is not strong enough to divorce him but you can only leave him if he chooses to let you go cos you are bound to your husband as long as you leave EXCEPT HE DECIDES TO LEAVE YOU BY HIMSELF.

However you can seperate from him cos the bible allows seperation leading to reconciliation.

It is a cross you have to bear and this is why I advise ladies never to have a number of kids they can't take care of personally.

Sis I'm sorry to say but you must carry your cross. Work hard, build your life n that of your kids.

Pray for him but don't leave him.

Cheers
Travel / Re: MALL OF AMERICA: Beautiful Pictures From Inside The Biggest Mall In The USA by Toks2008(m): 12:15pm On Sep 09, 2023
Schrodinger2:
The Mall of America needs no introduction in the USA. Located in Bloomington, not too far from the St Paul International airport at Minneapolis, it is the single biggest mall in the whole of the US. Tourist all over the country fly down to see what the 5.6 million square feet mall has to offer.

I visited Minneapolis, Minnesota for a one week conference and decided to be somewhat adventurous. Had limited time to spend and couldn't explore every part of the mall. Although entrance is completely free, you've got to pay for other forms of activities. The good part is, clothes here are tax-free so you pay only for the cost of the clothing.

This mall has some mind blowing stats you just might be interested in - Over 500 retail stores, and home to world largest LEGO. If you spend 5mins in each store, it will take you 2 days to finish shopping.

So I took some random pictures from inside the mall. I have only shown photos from the amusement park region.

Politics / Re: INEC’s Failure To E-Transmit Results Has Broken Nigerians’ Trust – Laolu Akande by Toks2008(m): 9:38pm On Sep 08, 2023
The picture says it all.

How can a nation move forward when votes don't count.

Democracy is government by the people and for the people... But when government is longer by the people then how will the government act in the interest of the people?

The biggest loser is NIGERIA because never again will the progressive youths come out to register to vote, never again will progressive Nigerians bother to vote because they know that their votes are useless.

INEC has set Nigeria several years back and the nation may never ever recover from it.

The former senate president said openly that capturing of results real time from polling units and sending to server is what they signed into law.

INEC chairman MAHMOOD YAKUBU said several times that capturing of election result real time from the polling unit and sending to the server IS A LEGAL REQUIREMENT.

Furhermore, the electoral act in section 64 subsection 4 b clearly states...

(4) A collation officer or returning officerat an election shall collate and announce the result of an election, subject to his or her verification and confirmation that the

(b) the votes stated on the collated result are correct and consistent with the votes or results recorded and transmitted directly from polling units under section 60 (4) of this Act.


Watch INEC spokesman reiterate this fact in this very short clip.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-gIcIqeEfM?si=GIW-sLimfSL1V6HU


I have always believed that once a bill is signed into law it becomes binding and failure to adhere will have legal consequences.

But in a strange twist, the tribunal has ruled that it is not mandatory despite being a legal requirement in the electoral act.

Perhaps if well meaning Nigerians push the government to make it mandatory that INEC must capture and transmit voting results real time from polling units to servers and failure to do this will void the result of the effected polling unit... Maybe Nigerians might give birth to another Democracy...

For now I will say "May the soul of Democracy in Nigeria rest in peace" .

Nope! For as long as they have discretionary powers it is not! If you say it is and they chose to do as they please why are you asking to be made "mandatory" what is already mandatory? Toks obviously, this politics thing ain't your forte. I know you are pained by the Tribunal ruling but saying our Democracy is dead because of that is just base pessimism!

Ose progressive youths with no Stockholm syndrome!

You are wrong.. I know more about politics than you can ever imagine I do.

Needless as this is, you can choose to keep at this "emotional rigmarole" calling it the "death of democracy".

In your 9th paragraph you said "Perhaps if the supreme court makes it mandatory..." haba now, from Arms of Government 101 you should know that it is not the duty of the judiciary to do what you are asking. Theirs is to AFFIRM the law as passed by the National Assembly!

The Judiciary only affirmed the law that gives leg room for INEC to choose whatever mode of transmission it seems fit. Like it or not!

Think solution: Push for an amendment no matter how long it takes but NO you wouldnt!

You even said "The biggest loser is NIGERIA because never again will the progressive youths come out to register to vote, never again will progressive Nigerians bother to vote because they know that their votes are useless." I laugh! You mean if you don't vote all of a sudden all the youths in Nigeria won't vote again? Who were those voting before now? Emotions! Sentiments! Keep it in check. Yo are way too old for this.

Noted and amended. Thanks.

I actually meant to write "if the supreme court can rule that it is mandatory" but that will not happen anyways.

And Infact it is already mandatory as written in the electoral act but Inec just chose to do as it likes.

And I was referring to progressive youths not bothering to register not the youths suffering from Stockholm syndrome.

They will crosscheck and correct all names before publishing and they use names written on your ID for the publication.

If you ever see wrong name then it is a calculated attempt.

It’s actually a good thing if he’s the one
He’s eligible for disqualification for using wrong names with INEC
For a school to fight releasing your results (you can see a lot of school online if you know where to search) there are discrepancies

I have actually checked online and I have gotten a sound info that it is a misrepresentation of identity which carries serious legal consequence.

This is why I love discussing with sound minds.

I'm a yoruba man with sound education.

I love Tinubu like a son will love his dad but I'm too objective to support any individual be it Obi, Atiku or nay other candidate blindly.

Tinubu has a questionable identity and only a fool will argue this.

Until he clears the discrepancy, he remains a presumed crook and such is unfit to be the CEO of a country like Nigeria.
